All Inspections are done using the latest HomeGauge Software with an I-Pad. I take over 100 pictures with as I go thru the home and it's many systems so the report is being generated as I go thru the home making videos, pictures, recordings and if I want to add something unique to your home all I do is say it and it converts it to text for the report

What Our Clients Are Saying

Joe was great to work with. We hired him to do a home inspection and radon test for the house that my husband and I were purchasing. When we met with him to go over the inspection, he explained everything extremely well and not only told us the problem areas, but he also gave us recommendations on how to best improve out new home. He was also very quick on sending us the detailed report of the inspection and radon test. On top of all that, he even offered to come back after we moved into our new home to do a follow up test for free. I would highly recommend Joe at Best Step Inspections for your home inspection or radon test. - Jennifer H. Glenoce
